Voters should care about this resolution because it represents a formal and public acknowledgment by the U.S. Senate of the service and sacrifice of military personnel, even when they are serving domestically. It highlights the potential dangers faced by service members, even in the nation's capital, and underscores the importance of recognizing those who put themselves at risk.

If this resolution becomes law (which for a resolution means it's passed by the Senate), it establishes a public record of honor for Specialist Beckstrom and Staff Sergeant Wolfe, and a condemnation of the violence against them. If it doesn't pass, it would mean the Senate did not formally express these sentiments, potentially leaving the families and the service members unacknowledged in this manner by the legislative body.
